Interstellar and Atmospheric Clouds
Nature, 1970WE wish to draw attention to a novel and striking similarity between the physics of two apparently quite disparate situations—the behaviour of the interstellar medium and of water vapour in an atmospheric cloud.

Atmospheric Aerosols: Clouds, Chemistry, and Climate
Annual Review of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, 2017Although too small to be seen with the human eye, atmospheric particulate matter has major impacts on the world around us, from our health to global climate. Understanding the sources, properties, and transformations of these particles in the atmosphere is among the major challenges in air quality and climate research today.

The physics of clouds in the atmosphere
Reports on Progress in Physics, 1983Modern cloud physics research commenced in the 1940s with the practical goal of weather modification. Over the last 35 years our understanding of the microphysical properties of clouds has increased significantly but weather modification has not become widely established as an economically worthwhile technique for the enhancement of natural rainfall ...

Atmospheric electricity and aerosol-cloud interactions in earth’s atmosphere
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2013Firstly, atmospheric ions play an important role in the fair weather electricity in Earth’s atmosphere. Small ions, or charged molecular clusters, carry electric currents in the atmosphere. These small ions are continuously present, and their lifetime in lower atmosphere is about one minute.

Abstract Atmospheric brown clouds (ABCs) are widespread pollution clouds that can at times span an entire continent or an ocean basin. ABCs extend vertically from the ground upward to as high as 3 km, and they consist of both aerosols and gases.

Transient clouds in Titan's lower atmosphere
Nature, 1998The 1980 encounter by the Voyager 1 spacecraft with Titan, Saturn's largest moon, revealed the presence of a thick atmosphere containing nitrogen and methane (1.4 and approximately 0.05 bar, respectively). Methane was found to be nearly saturated at Titan's tropopause, which, with other considerations, led to the hypothesis that Titan might experience ...

Costs and Benefits of Atmospheric Correction in the "Clouds"
2019 IEEE Pacific Rim Conference on Communications, Computers and Signal Processing (PACRIM), 2019The evolution of software applications from single desktops to sophisticated cloud-based systems is challenging. In particular, applications that involve massive data sets, such as geospatial applications and data science applications are challenging for domain experts who are suddenly constructing these sophisticated code bases.

APPROXIMATION OF EQUATIONS FOR A MODEL OF THE CLOUD ATMOSPHERE
Meteorologiya i Gidrologiya, 2021A model of an ideal cloud atmosphere bounded from above by a free material constant-pressure surface is considered. It is assumed that the own volume of water vapor condensate is negligible, drops and crystals simultaneously exist as continuous fluids at positive and negative temperatures (°С), and saturated vapor pressure over the drop-crystal mixture

Clouds in Planetary Atmospheres
2004In the terrestrial atmosphere clouds are familiar as vast collections of small water drops or ice cyrstals suspended in the air. The study of clouds touches on many facets of armospheric science. The chemistry of clouds is tied to the chemistry of the surrounding atmosphere.
